Yeah, I think you're right.
I don't think it is true, Tucker.
I think that the general sense in the West is that you'll hear from some people that Russia is losing on the battlefield and that the Russian economy is about to fall apart.
I mean, I've heard it time and time again, and there's no evidence to support either of those things.
The battlefield issue is poorly understood, and I think the reason is that people don't understand Russia's motivations and they don't understand what the strategy is.
In an article I wrote recently on the coming war with Russia, I said that Clausewitz, who was the great political philosopher of war, said that the most important decision that a military man and a politician can make is to understand the nature of the war.
And I don't think that the West has understood the nature of the war with Russia, nor, for that matter, with Iran.
What they haven't understood with Russia is that this is, as far as Russia is concerned, is an existential war.
You know, they are fighting to make sure that Russia is preserved.
And when you get people like Kayakalas saying that Russia must be broken up, who can blame them?
I think, have we understood that?
I think that would be a start.
Unfortunately, we're approaching the war, it seems to me, as a negotiation, a negotiation with arms.
You know, if we increase a bit of pressure on Russia, then they'll eventually come back to the...
negotiating table.
What they've missed, though, is that Russia, I think, has a clear strategy.
And I can't be sure about it.
I'm not in the Russian general staff, but I think it's got about five key phases.
I mean, we know that the run-up to the special military operation, Tucker, was...
it was clear that there were so many warnings going back as far as 1996.
